It's time for Marsha in the Middle's 10 on the 10th.
This time it's all about October and fall. Here are her "this or that" questions.
Pumpkin spice latte or apple cider?
I have never had a pumpkin spice latte in my life, but I can imagine that I would like it. I'll still choose the apple cider, though.
Lots of layers or one big bulky one?
I rarely wear a lot of layers. It's usually one shirt, maybe a light jacket and my denim jacket. If that's too cold, it's shirt and my big jacket.
Harvest festival or craft fair?
I don't think I have ever been to a harvest fair, to be honest, I don't even remember something like it is done in my area (I can only think of spring events), so it's the craft fair for me.
Football games or movie nights?
This one is really easy. I don't watch sports at all, it bores me. Give me a movie anytime!
Fuzzy socks or fuzzy slippers?
Neither if possible. I would prefer to be barefoot, but have a pair of sensible felt slippers to walk around because my feet need all the support they can get.
I always have a blanket around, but often enough my feet are sticking out and only go under it for a quick warm-up if they need it.
Orange pumpkins or white pumpkins?
Orange pumpkins. They always make me think of Linus sitting in the pumpkin field and are just more traditional to me.
If I decorated for fall, I would probably mix in other natural colors and shapes, but not necessarily white.
Jeans or leggins?
Jeans, but the denim can't be too thick anymore. It's a heat thing with me, I love the look of jeans, but wear thinner ones even in winter now.
Horror movie or Halloween baking championship?
Do you mean to watch or to participate in? 😉
I don't really watch horror movies because it doesn't make much sense to watch a movie through your fingers. If I watch horror, it's usually a really old film.
I'm not a baker myself and also don't watch others baking (not even The Great British Bakeoff, I prefer watching crafts) and I definitely wouldn't take part in a contest. I would gladly have a look at the finished products, though. People's creativity is amazing.
Thunderstorm or crisp, chilly days?
I'll take the crisp, chilly days.
Kettle corn or candy corn?
I only had candy corn once in my life, it's not a thing here. A friend sent me some from the USA when she heard I had never tried it there.
The ex loved his popcorn and he loved it sweet, never salty. He made it in a pot, so I guess that is kettle corn? Then he put a bit aside which didn't get sweetened, that was for Dude who absolutely loved it (of course he didn't get much). I'm not a big popcorn eater myself and never make it.
If I had to choose, I would probably take the candy corn just because it's something different (and can sit around for a while!).
How would you choose? You are welcome to play along on Marsha's blog!
